Brief Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX

Detailed Answer:
After reviewing both the attached Ecgs and your medical query I am happy to assure you that both the ecg reports are within normal limits and there is nothing alarming.

What’s even more assuring is that your CCTA report is also normal.

Also I would like to add that your age and female gender makes you less susceptible for coronary artery disease issues.

Just follow healthy lifestyle routine which includes healthy eating habits and daily exercise routine for atleast 5 days a week.

Just I want to know that why you have got these Ecg’s done at first place?

Hope to have been helpful.

I got them because I was having chest pain I have it frequently. And I believe I was having withdrawl from Ativan. Why would they say heart attack and low voltage?

Brief Answer:
Hello again

Detailed Answer:
Anxiety disorder and even withdrawal from any type of anti anxiety pills can mimic symptoms like chest tightness or discomfort.

Those are machine interpretations and are mostly inaccurate. Being a preventive cardiology practitioner I always insist my patients to discuss with their treating physician and not just rely on any machine interpretations or any Internet based assessment.

So you think the EKGs were just wrong?
doctor
Answered by Dr. Bhanu Partap (7 hours later)
Brief Answer:
Hello

Detailed Answer:
No, please don’t misinterpret. What I wanted to convey is that your ecg tracings does not suggest any heart attack.

Your ecg is normal, only the interpretation which ecg machine has done of the tracing is wrong.

I hope I have made my point clear now.
